Partnering with a Leader in Women’s Health

With the best minds at work, Northwestern’s Institute for Women’s Health Research is on a path to become the nation’s leading academic authority on women’s health. Our collaborations with key partners, such as Northwestern’s new Prentice Women’s Hospital, will enable groundbreaking research to translate quickly into clinical practice. While the Institute's partnerships with clinical and academic units will make Northwestern more competitive for government and grant funding, private philanthropy is needed to advance and accelerate our urgent work.

Gifts from individuals, corporations, and foundations will make the difference—your commitment will ensure that our research and clinical programs continue to grow and flourish as we establish the Institute.

We invite your philanthropic support to help us advance promising research studies that focus on sex and gender as an important variable; to recruit a talented physician scientist interested in sexual determinants of health; to develop a training program that focuses on sex, gender and health; and to extend our educational programs and research to all women in the community. A number of giving options are available, including outright gifts, pledges, and several naming opportunities.
